Description
Blancpain TR-900 Tornek Rayville TR900 Milspec, arguably the most important US military watch ever made, manufactured from 1964 to 1966 and delivered to the USA without the Blancpain TM on the dial (a result of the "Buy American act" of 1933). It is estimated that roughly 1000 examples were delivered to the Navy and they are extremely rare today as the majority were either destroyed, returned to military bases, or lost in combat. The stainless steel bead blasted case is in excellent condition, original black dial signed Tornek - Raville US is in pristine condition with even patina, moisture indicator at 6 o'clock, iconic TR900 luminous hands and pointed second hand, all lume is Promethium - 147 (as designated at the bottom of the dial), acrylic crystal is original to the watch and shows sign of wear and likely used in battle, automatic AS caliber 1361, hacking seconds, original brass dust cover, anti-magnetic, case back is secured by outer ring, case back reads "NON MAGNETIC, DANGER, IF FOUND RETURN TO NEAREST MILITARY FACILITY, MIL-W-22176 SERIAL 09XX.
